Advice on Knee pain problems????Okay so i play soccer. And soccer (obviously) is an endurance and skill based sport. I play offense left wing and when ever im playing a game and running a lot, a few shorts seconds/a minute after i stop my knees start to hurt. They hurt on the indside area. At fist its just un comphortable but then it becomes worse aches and hurts more. Right now when im sitting down they are hurting. Also recently when i got up the next morning after soccer practice when i was stiff and stuff, i tried walking down the stairs and it HURT. Going down steep hills or walking up escalators and walking down also hurts. I am currently wearing a knee brace the when walking makes it more comphortable but since both knees hurt, and it would be hard to wear 2 braces, i still have to deal with pain i at least one knee. Also (which is wha i think is weird) after running or playing soccer, my ankles swell some and get really stiff. Sometimes it's hard to walk on them too. Im not sure what this is and will be going to a doctor soon most likely, but i would like someone else's input and opinion.
P.S- for those who say that swimming is good to build muscle, i cant swim...

I take cortisone shots from my doctor

U need to rest your knees until they heal & slowly build up muscle strength, swimming is good too. Meantimes use compressive knee supports to reduce pain & prevent reinjury...they're good for playing sports too.
